About Carrickfergus Harbour Car Park

Welcome to Carrickfergus Harbour Car Park, officially known as Castle Car Park. Operated as a municipal public facility by Mid & East Antrim Borough Council, this convenient parking hub sits at Rodgers Quay along the harbour and serves as a practical base for visitors exploring Carrickfergus and its coastline. With a capacity of 274 spaces, it’s a reliable option for day trips, harbour events, and accessing nearby amenities. We’ve got you covered with parking tips, transit options, and nearby hotel and dining picks to help you secure your plans with ease.

Note: Tariffs at nearby MEABC car parks vary. Castle Car Park itself offers free access, making it a straightforward choice for visitors needing stress-free parking by the water.

Nearby transit includes Carrickfergus Train Station on Victoria Street, which offers substantial on-site parking (reported around 291 spaces). Ulsterbus town services (including the 365 series) connect Carrickfergus to surrounding towns, making this an accessible pickup point for exploring the wider region. If you’re driving a motorhome, the Carrickfergus Harbour Car Park Aire de Service provides water, waste disposal, and token-based services for a convenient stopover. For lodging, the Premier Inn Carrickfergus sits close to Alexandra Pier and Rodgers Quay, offering a practical base after a day at the harbour. When planning to attend events such as Learning Disability Pride (hosted at Castle Car Park/Sea Front) or harbour-side activities, this car park serves as a dependable anchor point. Secure your seats and spaces through our trusted network to keep your plans simple and dependable.

Transit, parking, and nearby amenities are subject to change. Check the latest details before you travel and consider nearby MEABC car parks like Windrose, Marine Gardens, High Street, Joymount, and Lancasterian Street for alternate parking options if you’re visiting during busy periods.
